Writers on America

Found this site listed as the site of the day on one of my favorite sites, refdesk.com:

Writers on America
Choosing 15 writers who have attained a certain stature for their work, with the group as a whole reflecting the considerable diversity of American writing today, the U.S. State Department commissioned each to write an essay. The assignment: In what sense do you see yourself as an American writer? This site presents the essays.

Peg, you have to do this. You have such a unique voice!

that the essays were submitted by invitation of the State Department.

Personally, I haven't had much contact with the State Department lately.

Cheers,
Peg

You mean you didn't talk to Jim Young at Minicon? ;)
